Steering the Q.T. Scooter is easy and logical. Just be sure to remember
to give a clearance when turning so that the rear wheels clear any
obstacles.
When turning, always turn your Q.T. Scooter to a LOW speed.
If it is a tight turn (entering a doorway or going around a blind corner)
STOP your Q.T. Scooter. Turn your steering column in the direction you
wish to proceed while still in the stationary position. Then apply the
power gently to move forward The Q.T. Scooter will move gently and
with complete stability.
REVERSING requires your attention
Always turn your Speed dial to SLOW before reversing.
Push the accelerator lever with your left thumb.
Remember: when you reverse, steer in the OPPOSITE direction to the
way you want to go. Always take your time.
The Q.T. Scooters are not designed for use in loose gravel, sand
or soft grass. Neither is your scooter designed to be used in wet
weather or rain.
Ramps
The stability of your scooter is governed by several factors such as the
seating position of the occupant, the angle of the slope and your height
and weight. When approaching an incline, do so directly, avoid driving
up on an angle. Whereever possible avoid making turns on any incline
or decline. When going down a slope set the speed setting to SLOW,
this will ensure there is a safe controlled descent. When the thumb
levers are released the scooter will slow to a stop.
Do not turn off the control key while the unit is in motion.
Please follow all the guidelines and your scooter will perform admirably
over many surfaces.
